This is looking loke a smoking gun at the moment. I've had a quick scan back through the thread, and most people who are having problems have covers - the missing ones haven't said. I think both David and I have suggested trying the problem Glo(e)s out of the case to see if it makes a difference. Indeed, I'd go a bit further and suggest sleeping them with the screen upwards to test.

If I read SeeSee's comment properly, there also semmed to be a difference with the sleepcover setting on or off - is that right?

(It occurs that the thread would have been enhanced by photos of the actual setups of the Glo(e)s in their nesting habitats ...)
